Probably

Brown eyes, with a predatory gleam, Stalking the crowd, danger unseen Her gaze on me, an explicit dare, I assume the link, seal the affair Heart racing, drawn into her sin, Lips in a smirk, she knows she'll win I ask "Are you trouble?" I'm her prey, She whispers, "Probably," and she melts away "Probably," she breathes, both a game and decree, In that word she's my jailer, holding all the keys Am I more than the thrill she feels from being a tease? All she ever offers me is "Probably" Checkers on her chessboard, my level game, My actions transparent and lame She moves like smoke, her speech's profane, Carefree, like a child with no shame Our worlds apart, we've no common ground, We read from Shakespearean scripts "Does your King know how you play with pawns?" "Probably," she laughs, head thrown back "Probably," she breathes, both a game and decree, In that word she's my jailer, holding all the keys Am I more than the thrill she feels from being a tease? All she ever offers me is "Probably" Purity's cage and infernal dance, Both bind us tight, cruel romance In the afterglow's treasonous talks, Each is convinced from our stands "Both sides are wrong, they care not at all Might we go a different way?" She doesn't engage, turns her back to me Yawning "Probably" she drifts away "Probably," she breathes, both a game and decree, In that word she's my jailer, holding all the keys Am I more than the thrill she feels from being a tease? All she ever offers me is "Probably" A warning I transmit to my lover's side, "They're on their way A line you've crossed they have discovered, They say that, this time you've got to pay" "I'll run away with you, escape from the fray, Only say you'll have me, that you want me to stay." With a playful wink, she seals our fate, Murmuring 'Probably,' walks away "Probably," she breathes, both a game and decree, In that word she's my jailer, holding all the keys Am I more than the thrill she feels from being a tease? All she ever offers me is "Probably"
